another new born question - nappy disposal

CL

I have two in nappies at the minute and we've always used nappy sacks for all (wet and dirty), but dirty ones go straight into the wheelie bin. We double bag the dirty ones and you can still smell them.

We've been using the Angelcare bin for nearly 4 years now on our kids. I'd advise setting up an alert for Amazon on CamelCamel (sometimes they drop down to as low as £7.49 for 3 refils)



Otherwise, they're sometimes on 3 for 2 at Boots

We also have a pack of nappy sacks that we use for emergencies, or when we're out and about.

I wouldn't be without my tommee tippee nappy bin! Little man is 13 months now and I still use it. Ran out of cassettes the other week so tried using nappy bags, bleurgh not again, too muh hassle and smell came straight through. We don't have many luxuries but I'm
Not giving up my refills lol

With my first born I used the tommee tippee bin.

With the second I'm a tots-bot mum (Washables!) so thankfully, i dont have this problem any more

The tommee tippee bins are good but cardriges are expensive. I brought some cheap nappy sacks and just stored the used nappies in the tommee bin until it was bin day!

thanks for replies. Have got me thinking about the nappy bin. how long does a "cassette" last?

Easiest thing to do once they're weaning is tip the poop down the toilet. I live in a flat and if I have to use sposies this is what I do, then pop the dirty nappy into a bag, saves you running up and down to the outside bin and leaves no smells

We have an Angelcare bin which we use for dirty nappies only. Wet nappies we have a small plastic bin for which doesn't even have a lid as they really don't smell. Because there are only dirty nappies going into the Angelcare bin a cassette will last for months, maybe 3 months. Previously when all nappies went in we went through cassettes much more often which was expensive.

Just looking at the angelcare product in Argos and its currently £7.49. With that voucher,surely it would make it free?
